Barry Bonds 754 — At the Fence with Sports Illustrated

I live near AT&T Park, so from time to time I walk over to enjoy a few innings from the fence. From here, I get to look straight down the first base line. Apparently, I’m not the only one who in enjoys the view, as the Sports Illustrated photographer, his three cameras, remotes and assistant all take up residence. I asked Brad at the beginning of the week if he was shooting anyone but Barry Bonds and he replied “not this week.” I caught a little of the games during the week and then all of Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Here’s a shot from Friday… Brad has downloaded home run number 754 and is uploading it to SI, and minutes later it was gracing the home page of SI.com. Taken with my iPhone.

The other shot is Brad on Saturday afternoon.
